Been reading Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein and I decided to draw my take on the creature. Hope you like him! I’m a big fan of the book so far!
Goddamnit Victor, just because your a genius in science doesn’t mean your a genius in other aspects of life!
Thank you @marquisedemasque and everyone who got me to 25 reblogs!
Okay so I just thought of an idea for a TV show based on Frankenstein where it follows the creature on his journey as he learns about the world, but it focuses on his appearance, specifically his body parts.
Like each episode would be about a different body part that Victor used to make him and it cuts between present day with the creature and the past with the person that body part originally belonged to. The episode goes on to show what that person's life was like, how they acted, and eventually how they died.
For example: the creature's hands belonged to a poor, but talented painter and the episode focuses on the creature using his hands (building shelter, making fire, drawing in the dirt with a stick, etc).
Or the creature's face/head belonged to a beautiful male prostitute and the episode shows the similarities/contrast with how he was treated and how the creature is treated.
The way this quiz read me for filth... Well done.

I wanted to show the sheer scale of the creature compared to the average height of people in the Victorian era, so I drew my take on Victor! And, yes, I did use Timothée Chalamet as a reference because no matter what Guillermo del Toro would have me believe, Victor Frankenstein is a skinny, dehydrated college rat in my mind (this was intended as a complement to Timothée I truly think he would crush this role).
Nevermind I'm full of rage and I want to break a man in half. The world is cruel and unfair but that won't stop me from going at it with claws out and screaming defiance.
I've decided not to engage with the outside world anymore. If you need me I will be curled up in a ball in my nest hibernating. Wake me up in about 4 years when the tides may turn again. I'll be ready.
A quick comic about OPLA Chopper🦌 And maybe a little Zosan😏
This is one of my favorite paintings I've done.
These are Huldra or Hulderfolk from Scandinavian folklore. Hulderfolk are seductive forest spirits and their name translates loosely to "hidden" or "secret". They're said to look like normal women with the only difference being the hole in their back that resembles a hollowed tree and the long cow-like tail which they hide under their skirts. If you encounter a Huldra and treat her with respect, she will be very helpful (sharing the best fishing spots or tending to your charcoal kiln), but mistreat her and the punishment will be severe (being beaten to death with her tail or taken into the mountains never to be seen again).
Nøkken Among the Lilies
Thought I'd post a pic of my summer acrylic painting.
The Nøkken (also known as Näcken, Nøkk, Nixie, or Nix) is a water spirit from Scandinavian Folklore. He is known to reside in still bodies of water, hiding in the lily pads and fern. Nøkken was said to play the violin, fiddle, or harp so beautifully it lured people to the bodies of water where they drowned.
